7. To reduce the risk of fire in the oven cavity:
◆ Do not store flammable materials in the oven
◆ Remove wire twist ties from paper or plastic bags
◆ Do not use your microwave oven to dry newspapers
◆ If smoke is observed, keep the oven door closed and
switch off or disconnect the oven from the power
supply
8. Take particular care when heating liquids and baby foods.
◆ ALWAYS allow a standing time of at least 20 seconds
after the oven has been switched off so that the tem-
perature can equalize.
◆ Stir during heating, if necessary, and ALWAYS stir
after heating.
◆ Take care when handling the container after heating.
You may burn yourself, if the container is too hot.
◆ A risk of delayed eruptive boiling exists.
◆ To prevent delayed boiling and possible scalding, you
should put a plastic spoon or glass stick into the bev-
erages and stir before, during and after heating.
Reason : During the heating of liquids the boiling point
can be delayed; this means that eruptive
boiling can start after the container is
removed from the oven. You may scald
yourself.
◆ In the event of scalding, follow these FIRST AID
instructions:
• Immerse the scalded area in cold water for at
least 10 minutes.
• Cover with a clean, dry dressing.
• Do not apply any creams, oils or lotions.
◆ NEVER fill the container to the top and choose a con-
tainer that is wider at the top than at the bottom to pre-
vent the liquid from boiling over. Bottles with narrow
necks may also explode if overheated.
◆ ALWAYS check the temperature of baby food or milk
before giving it to the baby.
◆ NEVER heat a baby’s bottle with the teat on, as the
bottle may explode if overheated.
9. Be careful not to damage the power cable.
◆ Do not immerse the power cable or plug in water and
keep the power cable away from heated surfaces.
◆ Do not operate this appliance if it has a damaged
power cable or plug.
10. Stand at arm’s length from the oven when opening the
door.
Reason : The hot air or steam released may cause
scalding.
11. Keep the inside of the oven clean.
Reason : Food particles or spattered oils stuck to
oven walls or floor can cause paint damage
and reduce the efficiency of the oven.
12. “Clicking” sound might be noticed while operating,
especially at defrosting mode.
Reason : When the electrical power output is chang-
ing, you may hear that sound.
This is normal.
13. When the microwave oven is operating without any
load, the power will be cut off automatically for safety.
You can operate normally after letting it stand for over
30 minutes.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
During cooking, you should look into the oven from time to
time when food is being heated or cooked in disposable
containers of plastic, paper or other combustible materials.
IMPORTANT
Young children should NEVER be allowed to use or play
with the microwave oven. Nor should they be left unattend-
ed near the microwave oven when it is in use. Items of
interest to children should not be stored or hidden just
above the oven.
It is hazardous for anyone other than a comperent
person to carry out any service or repair operation which
involves the removal of a cover which gives protection
against exposure to microwave energy.
WARNING:
WARNING:
If the door or door seals are damaged, the oven must not
be operated until it has been
repaired by a competent person.
WARNING:
Liquids and other foods must not be heated in sealed
containers since they are liable to explode.
WARNING:
Only allow children to use the oven without supervicion
when adequate instructions have been given so that
the child is able to use the oven in a safe way and
understands the hazards of improper use.
